How to make Lachha paratha with step by step images

1. In a bowl add wheat flour, oil and salt. Mix well.
   
2. Add water gradually and  knead it into a soft dough. Keep it aside for 20 minutes.
   
3. Divide the dough into equal portion into golf ball size. Roll each dough ball into thin chapati.
4. Now apply little ghee/ oil onto the rolled chapati over it sprinkle some flour. Now pleat the paratha from top to bottom as shown in the above picture. Roll the pleated paratha from one edge as shown in the above picture. Do the same procedure for all the paratha.
   
5. Now roll/ flatten it gently with a rolling pin to form a paratha. Do not press too hard as the layers wont be seen. When you have rolled the dough gently layers will be prominent.
   
6. Heat a tawa and place the rolled paratha on it and drizzle some oil around it. When you see brown spots on one side, flip it and cook. Remove it from heat when done. Repeat the process till all the dough is complete. When done put off the flame and serve it with gravy of your choice.
